scott walker. not only wins 5247, just survived that recall election a few months ago. that is why, soledad, if you take our poll, you talk to both campaigns, and you go to that state and you sense the republican energy, that's why we saw it's a toss-up. >> if it's a toss-up and it wasn't four years ago, that means the obama campaign's going to have to spend some money. i have to imagine the gop looks at that as a very good thing. >> absolutely. the obama campaign has spent no money on television as yet in the state but we saw the organizing on the ground. they're making phone calls to voters. if they have to spend money, wisconsin is not the most expensive state in the country. you probably have to buy in minneapolis. to get people in this part of the state. you buy down here in milwaukee and madison. you buy up in the green bay market. it's not one of the most expensive states but if you're doing all of that, any money going into here, i would switch to the presidential map, if it's very close, you ght think, boy, i wish we had that for cleveland or columbus. any time

along with myself, hunter glass, scott barfield and a few others, we've been trying to get the military to wake up to this for at least the last ten years. the military is very slow on the ball right now as far as actually getting us to come on and train the higher-ups. i wish they would, to hopefully give them a better sense of what they're dealing with. >> pete, you say, i mean, from the time you spent with this guy, that you saw he had serious problems with alcohol. >> yes. excessive drinking throughout the time i knew him to the point of he had a hard time making it to work when he was working. and passing out on a regular basis. at one point he passed out at an airport on the way to a music show and wasn't able to get on the flight because he was so drunk. and this guy actually, toward the end of his time in southern california, actually became somewhat of a problem with him and some of his peers in the movement. because it was preventing him from holding down a job and being able to pay his share of the rent. and he was starting to kind of sponge money off of people and so forth.
